Underworld modeling of large-scale folds in ice sheets
Creators
Description
Code for the revising manuscript, Zhang et al., Ice Modeling Indicates Formation Mechanisms of Large-scale Folding in Greenland's Ice Sheet Large-scale stratigraphic folds have been universally observed in the ice-penetrating radargrams of Greenland's ice sheet. Here we use the full-Stokes code Underworld to simulate ice movements in three-dimensional convergent flow, mainly concerning ice anisotropy due to crystallographic preferred orientation (CPO), vertical viscosity and density contrasts in ice layers, and bedrock conditions. Model 1: isotropic ice, free-slip basal boundary Model 2: anisotropic ice, free slip Model 3: anisotropy, flat bedrock surface Model 4: anisotropy, bumpy bedrock surface (400m) Model 5: isotropy, bumpy bedrock surface (400m) Model 6: larger anisotropy based on Model 4 Model 7: anisotropy, bumpy bedrock surface (200m) Model 8: larger bumps based on Model 4 Model 9: larger ice thickness based on Model 4
